Rest in peace, Judy Garland. It's heartbreaking that she endured such a tragic life in Hollywood, being forced into show business at a young age, and dying at just 47 years old. 💔
At least she made an awesome distrack to Hitler
Her mother and MGM made the poor woman into an addict from when she was a child and it ultimately led to her death! Her mother made her take amphetamines to be awake and bouncy then downers so she'd sleep, MGM took over doing the same and the poor woman was never able to break free from the drugs. Absolutely tragic:-/
Pain@@TH-kd1ju
It says something so powerful about Judy Garland that she is featured so much on your list. Rest in peace beautiful angel.
Judy Garland had a voice above all others. It's so sad we lost her so young. Thank you🙏❤️🕊️
I’ve always liked musical films because I can’t sing and dance, so I live vicariously through them
I wish I can too
I was in choir when I was in school. We used to do some numbers that had choreography but nothing like what you saw on glee. I like the show tunes and the musical numbers too because I used to like when we would do choreography because when it all comes together, it looks fantastic.
@@joannewilson1162 Well I was in chorus in 5th grade but it sadly wasn’t like that
Thanks to my grandma who loved Judy garland, and gene Kelly, we used to watch the wizard of Oz and singing in the rain all the time. My grandma is the one who gave me my love for old movies, and those two stand out amongst all ones I watched with her. I miss you gram, every day. Thank you for showing me your love for musical movies. 💗💗
Somewhere Over the Rainbow and Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend as both of those songs have been covered by many artists decades after their initial releases.
Judy Garland and Julie Andrews, what wonderful actresses! Loved the video! 💖✨
Not that it was a simpler time back then, but movies were JUST MADE BETTER back then. They were SO PARTICUAL!
All those classical musicals movies are so good and beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤
I’ve seen them all except Cassablanca
Over the Rainbow has a special place in my heart because Wizard of Oz was a very popular film during my childhood
I love these classical musicals but my personal favorite is singing in the rain by Gene Kelly ❤
My wife is a huge Judy Garland fan and was so happy to see her so many times on this list, especially when as we were watching this the clock hit midnight and we went into Christmas Day in the UK during Somewhere Over The Rainbow - a true classic and one which (I am reliably informed) Judy usually sang to her children on Christmas Eve, according to her Christmas Special
That I didn’t know until now
Mary Poppins is number one to me because it was my first live action movie musical!
Not surprised by #1. In my opinion, #1 and #2 are pretty interchangeable. You really can’t go wrong with either of them because of how iconic they are. I love that Judy Garland is the most featured in this list. I knew she would be. Judy Garland was and still is undeniable. Judy Garland is a legend and she earned her spot.
"Spoonful of sugar" From Mary Poppins is definitely my favorite. Thanks, Emely, and a happy sunday afternoon to you as well. Take care and God bless you, and greetings from Colombia.
Merry Christmas too
Glad to see Audrey Hepburn mentioned here. “Funny Face” is my favorite film of hers. I would have liked to see Doris Day here, too, perhaps for “Deadwood Stage” from “Calamity Jane.” “Tonight” is my favorite scene from “West Side Story.”
For Doris Day it would have to be Secret Love.
While I love Gene Kelly and “Singing in the Rain,” “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” belonged at the top. That song has been an anthem for those who feel out of place where they are for literally almost a century.
Over The Rainbow takes my mother back to her childhood and a little bit on me. But what takes both of us back is This Used To B My Playground by Madonna in A League Of Their Own. That was made in my childhood. It may not be a Hollywood classic, but the emotional effects of that song is just like OTR .
Julie Andrews twice and Judy Garland three times says a lot about the classical musicals. Weird lack of men on this list though, except Gene Kelly of course.
I'm trying to remember--I think it was 1957, when the movie "South Pacific" came to the theaters, and I believe there was at least one, if not two, musical numbers in it. This movie has absolutely wonderful, catchy, musical numbers whose melodies I still can recall 65+ years later. ( I even have an old 33-and-a-third vinyl record of that movie's soundtrack. ) I really enjoyed this video presentation!
Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend and America were changed (censored really) for the movies. In the original plays Lorelie Lee is talking about her actual outlook on life (no production number setting) and Anita and the girls destroy Puerto Rico without any men rebutting them. I loved the card showing Dorothy next to Toto on the plow (or whatever it is) with Toto thinking: "Great, a huge storm is coming and she's gonna sing."
All good choices, but the Casablanca scene should be #1. None of the other songs influenced the film in such an important way. Given this criteria, I'd put "America" second and "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" third. Good to see Judy Garland with (only?) three songs -- you could easily include "The Trolly Song" and several others. I think Judy Garland was the #1 entertainer of the 20th Century. And you could have included "Stormy Weather" sung by Lena Horne while you were at it.
Thank you for the update, MsMojo..!! 3:37 That's an awesome song to listen to, on Christmas Eve..!! Happy Holidays, MsMojo and WatchMojo..!! 🤣
There were some great songs in the Unsinkable Molly Brown, too 🥰
Meet me in St. Louis had some other great songs! One is “Trolley Song”! I also love the lesser known “boy next door” from the movie! This is partly because I won a singing competition with it… but regardless, it is a beautiful song!
These assessments can be so subjective but I have to agree. All of these were pure, enthralling entertainment.
There was an emotional intensity to the Marseilles scene. I learned later that the actors actually had fled Europe to escape the Germans. They might be actors but their personal experiences shown through.
"That's Love", "Carmen Jones" (1954).
Getting to know you from the king and I is underrated classic
It can’t be
The great, multi talented and forever beautiful is really a musical treasure! All her musical numbers are classic, and ...supercalifragilisticexpialidocious - including Le Jazz Hot, from Victor/Victoria!
I’m honestly glad Julie Andrews did not reprise her role as Eliza Doolittle in the film adaptation of My Fair Lady so she could make her feature film debut as Mary Poppins. I’m sorry, but I cannot imagine anyone else playing the original Mary Poppins but Andrews and whoever would’ve played her if Julie did reprise her role as Eliza Doolittle and make her film debut in that role instead wouldn’t have made Mary Poppins such a pop culture icon as she did.
I’m more of a fan of Mary Poppins than My Fair Lady anyway
How did I know that mojo would pick singing in the rain?
Obviously, guys, Gene kelly, you guys like Gene Kelly, you need a top 20
A lot of these are 100% memorable all right. What about these though:
.Pure Imagination from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971)
There is a disproportionate focus on Judy Garland and Julie Andrews. Songs from Oklahoma, My Fair Lady, South Pacific and Camelot also come to mind. “O What a Beautiful Morning,” “On the Street Where You Live,” “I Could Have Danced All Night,” “Some Enchanted Evening,” “I’m Going Wash That Man Out of My Hair,” and “If I Could Ever Leave You.”
watched to check if singin in the rain was on here and i was so pleased 😁
Judy garland was so talented. And so tortured…it’s such a shame. I hope she’s at peace…all these actresses and actors with their huge voices and wonderful talent… there was no autotune back then. It was straight talent, beautiful
Somewhere Over The Rainbow it’s really magical but so is Singing In The Rain.
A few others I'd add: "Consider Yourself" from Oliver, "Simon Zealotes" from Jesus Christ Superstar (most memorable for its crazily high-energy dancing but great music too; also filmed on location on Roman ruins in Israel); "Sunrise Sunset" from Fiddler on the Roof.
This needs a Top 100. Top 10 just isn't enough! 😂
a worthy top 10 list, though it's impossible to keep it at just 10 w/so many incredible, memorable musicals on film. 'you'll never walk alone' from carousel comes to mind, a song so powerful it doesn't just happen once in the middle of the movie but it also closes the film in such an emotional, hopeful way. i thought the '02 adaptation of 'chicago' was a modern musical classic w/a number of songs that could have qualified.
Happy holidays Msmojo ❤

I am Totally agree about first an second... of course!
Favourite song & funniest in sound of music was the yodelling goat song
My fave is from Singin' in the Rain - the song and dance sequence -Good Mornin'. Could watch it over and over!
Bette Midler in The Rose, Whitney Houston in The Bodyguard, Judy Garland in Wizard of Oz (Somewhere Over the Rainbow), Julie Andrews in The Sound of Music (The Hills are Alive), Chicago's jail song, Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's, Bohemian Rhapsody with the stand in for Freddie Mercury, Donald O'Connor in Singing in The Rain (Make them Laugh), Madonna in Argentina, Gene Wilder in Young Frankenstein singing in Putin On The Ritz.
And speaking of Christmas marry Christmas and happy holidays
I wouldnt classify La Marseilles as a "musical number" per se, but the rest of the list is pretty great!
I haven’t even seen Cassablanca
Happy Holidays everyone. Wishing you all the best.
Great collection. I do think 1 and 2 are in the wrong order.
Streisand's song is a bit young for this classical list. Replace it with Cheek to Cheek, Top Hat. That dress😍😍😍😍
💥 You Can't Win - "The Wiz" (1978)
Remember like Casablanca, Meet In St Louis was released during WW2, so the lyrics of Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas, had even more resonance then, than now.
Number five Yes
And number 3
I have a theory: nobody at MsMojo has ever seen "Yankee Doodle Dandy."
I remember during summer, when I was in the pool and it was raining, I would sing to myself "Swimming in the Rain."
At 1:21, you showed a clip from Casablanca of a beautiful young woman tearfully proclaiming "Viva La France!" at the end of La Marseillaise. That woman is Madeleine Lebeau. She played Yvonne, a girl spurned by Humphrey Bogart's Rick Blaine. She doesn't take it very well and later starts dating a Nazi. Madeleine was only 19 when she was in Casablanca, and was the last person with a credited role in the film to die. She passed away in Spain at the age of 92 in 2016. It was only when she passed away that I knew how young she was when Casablanca was released; I thought she was older. She wasn't the youngest cast member, but she outlived her younger castmate, Joy Page.
Moon River is top 3. Always!
The top two were absolutely perfect. I think it's dumb that Singin' in the Rain the GREATEST movie musical of all time was brutally SNUBBED at the Oscars it should have received at least 10 nominations including Best Picture. But anyway Singin' in the Rain and The Wizard of Oz will go down in history as the two greatest movie musicals EVER!
You need to do two lists of the best performances in musicals, one of Barbra Streisand and one of Judy Garland.
Ok. For the first time i found something wrong in one of your videos. Over the Rainbow is the Number 1 most memorable song ,period. Judy Garland sang beautifully and will forever be remembered for The Wizard of oz, and also for her tragic personal life. RIP Judy
Maybe it misses the Classic Hollywood Era by a few years but Liza Minnelli singing Cabaret in Cabaret (1972) would otherwise be at least an honorable mention.
No 1 and 2 songs can easily be interchangeable, depending on the mood of the day. Either song can be an “unlucky” second.
However, “Somewhere..” has been around 100 years and it is known to people of all generations and nations (that use English l, even as secondary language), so Judy Garland’s song is undoubtedly No 1.
It probably has been played by radio/TV/MP3/YouRube or being sang by people, only second to “Happy Birthday”.
People will instantly recognize the song by singing 1 word (2 silyllables).
I thought it was too morbid for Frank Sinatra who watched that movie and wanted to record it.
Get Me to the Church On Time and Good Ship Lollipop should be on here
why does everyone forget Hello Dolly and how to succeed?
HOW DO YOU NOT HAVE ANYTHING FROM GUYS AND DOLLS??????
These are wonderful choices and brilliantly talented people, but no, you didn't include my favorite. To do that this list would have had to showcase Danny Kaye...who is sadly often forgotten.
🌸🎄🌸
Wow, a lot of the songs were sung by Judy Garland.
Barn dance 7 Brides
Jailhouse Rock only honorable mention?
4:16 Mrs. Doubtfire sang it better.
No one touches Judy Garland .
Thank you for these wonderful, albeit brief, insights into how these musical numbers have an interesting backstory to them. I am going to ask you, now, to please, please, please stop using the word "iconic"; it's a very tired cliche, and all the presenters of similar videos, that is, those especially focusing on famous or influential people, use this word exclusively to emphasize the accompanying point in the given context. Please go to a thesaurus, that's a book of synonyms, i.e., a book of similar words, and find other descriptors. Listening to your commentary, it is evident that you do have a true sense of language eloquence, so it should be easy for you to drop "iconic" from your vocabulary usage. Thank you. ( One last point: I'll let you keep the term "indelible" this time. )
This is all wrong. Over the Rainbow is no 1 in my opinion
No mention of the worry song from anchors aweigh? Not even an honorable mention? What the fuck is wrong with you guys?
